Yep I have always enjoyed the shopping process. Well maybe not when I was 16 or so, but as I matured, I came to appreciate delayed gratification. There is indeed a joy at finding the needed piece for a less than painful price. Enjoy!
PS... With my 1992 F250 7.3 litre International diesel, I came to understand the value of spending a bit of cash for antigel when it got brutally cold. Just saying. Your truck is a lot newer and may not need it.
